Great app

Works well and is very easy to use.

Phenomenal

This app works like a charm to adjust watch accuracy with the help of apple earbuds it accurately measures time error of your time piece instantly allowing you to adjust your watch to the correct speed in one setting. What an amazing tool!!!!

Worked as intended

Keep it in a quiet area and adjust the sensitivity and it’ll help you get the right time set. Intuitive and simple, set +- 2 seconds for my 1913 Elgin that I’m sure fluctuates more from temperature than this can fix.

Waste of money

Please save your money,this doesn’t work.Tried on a new iPhone and it’s just a few hours of frustration you will never get back

Works sometimes

Not very accurate, works occasionally

Works great

Didn’t think this would work but matches up exactly to what I was told when buying watch.

Arnaque

Aucune utilité ou fiabilité ni avec le microphone de l’iphone ni avec celui des Airpods.

Works with the right microphone and settings

I was able to get a reading when laying my watch face down on my iPhone near the built-in microphone (in the lower left corner). It didn’t work when laying the watch on its side—not loud enough. This did not allow me to measure my watch in different positions.
I tried using my original AirPods, but that didn’t work at all.
I finally pulled out the wired headphones that came with one of my iPhones. I held the microphone part against the back of the watch with a wire tie wrap. Masking tape should work even better. I set sensitivity = 2/3, noise cancellation = on, and measuring time = long. This produced stable results in most positions. These generally agreed with my seconds/day measurements for 24 hours, but of course is much faster!

Fonctionne très bien

Mesures rapides et fiables dès la première utilisation. Bien suivre les conseils du développeur. Je n’ai pas eu besoin des écouteurs. Le micro de l’iPhone (12 mini) a fait le job.

+329 s/d…no matter what.

Make all the adjustments you want, it’s +329 s/d.

Exceeded expectations!!

I don’t normally leave reviews but this warrants one! I tracked my watch visually by atomic time clock but hated the eyeball variance and waiting lol … I didn’t want to shell out hundreds for a pro watch timegrapher, either.

I went out on a limb and paid the small fee for this and using Apple EarPods I never use this worked flawlessly!! Detected BPM, and it appears it validates my eyeball atomic method, but can be done in just a minute or two. Top work to the developer; this is one must have cool little app :-)

Doesn’t work

I tried this on a variety of watches. I tried watch crown to iPhone microphone. I tried wired iPod microphone. I turned sensitivity up and down. Noise cancelling on and off.

I could not even get a remotely accurate measurement of beats per hour. I get too much noise or no signal.

Two days of fiddling. Also does not work even with the case back taken off of a noisy watch.

Excellent app

I was sceptical at first but, if you follow the direction to keep external noise minimal and take the case back off the watch using the mic from the iPhone earbuds I managed to get two stubborn mechanical watches to within 15secs p/day in just a few minutes. After a few weeks of trial and mainly error getting them regulated that is a result! Thank you.

Can I have a refund? This is crap

Can I have a refund? This is crap

Parfait pour petit réglage basic

Acheter suite commentaire du haut egalement pour regler un nh35 , parfait , fait bien le job meme avec un iphone 6, du coup toutes les meca y sont passées également ... content 😊

Vraiment peu précis

Que ça soit avec le microphone interne ou un casque Apple, les mesures font des bons de 20 à 40 secondes quels que soient les réglages choisis : inutilisable !

Does exactly what you expect

I was a little bit skeptical before I got it, but it turned out to work well. Of course, it is less accurate than a Timegrapher for $100+, but it gives you excellent results nevertheless.

The main hint is to put your watch and the mic into a box (preferably with thick walls), so it will catch far less noise than in an open environment (I used my Bose headphones case for that), and keep your phone outside the box to read the measurements.

Great alternative to dedicated timegrapher

While learning about how to regulate my mechanical watches, I game across this app. Buying a dedicated timegrapher seemed impractical. I used it to regulate the 7s26 movement in my Seiko SKX013. At first it gave me some strange results, but after playing with the microphone sensitivity it was reporting roughly what I’d been observing. It worked well using the built in microphone on my iPhone XS about 1 cm from the case (with case back on). I had the phone and watch on a desk on a mousepad in a very quiet room. I think a help screen would be nice, but after fiddling with it, it’s pretty straightforward.

This combined with Marc’s video on how to regulate a movement on the Long Island Watch YouTube channel were extremely helpful.

Not for case clocks

This app may be OK for a watch. I thought it would work also for a grandfather clock, but it isn’t. The app collects a certain number of ticks, and for a watch that’s a minute or two. For a tall clock, with 3600 beats per hour, this takes a l-o-n-g time.

Not a good buy for clocks :(

It really does work

It does take some fiddling... I was actually about to give this app a negative review but just before I did, I decided to read the instructions one more time. Rather than placing the mic on the crystal as some have said, the app instructions state that you should place the mic against the crown of the watch. As soon as I did that it worked! Awesome little app 🙌🏾
